6. Medel att återställa kroppens och själens krafter? Om Carl von Linnés syn på växters inverkan på människans sinne(n) i Inebriantia år 1762
Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för litteratur, idéhistoria och religionSammanfattning : Abstract: Carl Linnaeus’s dissertation Inebriantia (1762) emerges as a transitional piece at the intersection of the early modern and the modern period, reflecting 18th-century beliefs about inebriation, the natural world, and its mysterious forces.
